Bela passed the CGC on the first try!! We hope to start visiting the hospital and nursing homes soon.  She is an amazing dog because she has the sweetest disposition.  Bela learns quickly but unfortunately I’m not an experienced trainer. I’m still learning from a positive training book that focused on non-biddable dogs like the bullies. I live in a rural area and positive trainers are hard to find but the satisfaction from training yourself is wonderful and the bond you will have with your dog makes it worth the hard work.
